Adams County deputies chase suspects after shots fired, ends in tactical crash on US 36
US 36 was closed between Federal Boulevard and Sheridan Boulevard early on Wednesday for an investigation conducted by Adams County deputies.
According to Adams County Sheriff's tweets, deputies were pursuing suspects who are accused of firing shots at deputies. A suspect vehicle was stopped on US-36 using tactical maneuvers, and everyone in the suspect car were taken into custody.
The sheriff's office told CBS News Colorado none of the suspects were hurt in the chase or the eventual maneuver used to stop the vehicle they were in, and none of the deputies were hurt when shots were fired or when following the suspects to stope them.
The stretch between Sheridan and Federal was closed for several hours before all lanes of traffic were open in both directions just before 7:45 a.m.
The closure was affecting RTD bus schedules on US-36 as well. Check the route schedules on RTD's website to stay updated.
There was no immediate information about what led to the encounter with the suspects between deputies, or where they first ran into each other.
